Bears waive WR Bradley, claim CB Hamilton off waivers

The Bears on Tuesday claimed CB Marcus Hamilton off of waivers from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and waived WR Mark Bradley.

Hamilton entered the NFL as a seventh-round draft pick (245th overall) of the Buccaneers in 2007. The University of Virginia product spent the entire 2007 season on Tampa Bay's practice squad. He started the 2008 season on the Buccaneers practice squad and was elevated to the active roster last week. He made his first career NFL appearance in last week's contest against the Bears and recorded one tackle and two passes defensed. He was waived Monday by Tampa Bay.

Bradley appeared in 34 games over four seasons for the Bears with four starts and had 38 receptions for 583 yards and four touchdowns.
